Latest Fantasy Rumors
Has path to 53-man roster
WRWashington Commanders
May 10, 2025
Ben Standig of The Athletic has Brooks at the top of his list of undrafted free agents most likely to make the Commanders' 53-man roster for the 2025 season.
ANALYSIS
A former five-star recruit, Brooks was on the verge of breaking out at Alabama before suffering a season-ending labrum tear in 2023. He transferred to Louisville in 2024 and finished the season with 61 catches for 1,013 yards and nine touchdowns, but he did not hear his name called during the 2025 NFL Draft despite being a First-Team All-ACC selection. He has the raw talent and vertical playmaking to be an intriguing option in the passing game, but in a crowded wide receiving room, Standig believes Brooks' best path to securing a spot on the 53-man roster is through special teams work.
